1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Congenital motor nystagmus (CMN) is characterized by bilateral involuntary ocular oscillation without any other underlying ocular or systemic diseases. An autosomal dominant CMN was identified in a large Chinese family where all patients had nystagmus since infancy. The nystagmus in the family is independent of any known ocular or systemic diseases. After exclusion of known CMN loci, a genome-wide scan was performed by genotyping microsatellite markers at about 10 cM intervals, together with two-point linkage analysis. Exome sequencing was used to screen coding exons of well-annotated genes. Sanger-dideoxy sequencing was used to verify candidate variations inside the linkage interval. Congenital motor nystagmus in this family shows linkage to markers in a 11.39 Mb (12.1 cM) region on chromosome 1q31-q32.2 between D1S2816 and D1S2692. All nine markers in the linkage interval gave positive lod scores, with D1S2655 and D1S2636 yielding lod scores of 5.16 and 5.18, respectively, at θ = 0. No causative mutation in the linkage interval was identified by exome sequencing of gDNA from four patients. A linkage study of additional families and further analysis of candidate genes may ultimately lead to identification of the gene responsible for dominantly inherited CMN.
